Jay Osborne Quotations

(Hastings) is starting to assert himself on the offensive end. I turned to my coaching staff and told them that one big shot would get us over the hump and Chris was the one that hit the shot.

I thought we played a really good third quarter. We struggled a little bit in the first half, but we played well enough in the third quarter to overcome it.

It gave our kids confidence that they could play with some great players and teams.

We played very well in the first half, but played like we wanted to move on to the finals in the third quarter.

It's going to be a fun contrast of two very different styles. They want to push everything up and down and we want to get into a half-court game. (Willard) has a great team and we have some great competitors.

You couldn't have scripted it any better. That's the way it would have been drawn up with our best shooters at the line. But as bad as we were, we were still in the game. Both teams played their guts out.
